"ah--"

Subconsciously, Tina screamed.

In her hometown, griffins have always played the role of snatching away naughty children.

Although these creatures are indeed majestic and powerful, they are also known for their bad temper.

With a scream loud enough to reach the standard of a soprano, the griffin spread its wings and reduced its flying speed slightly so as to avoid the "sonic attack" head-on.

The screaming sound didn't last long, and Tina had already poured all her magic power into the magic engine at full power.

The propeller of the glider was spinning rapidly, and for a moment it actually passed the griffin and briefly created a distance between it and the griffin.

However, as the darling of the sky, the griffin's flying speed is far beyond the reach of a glider. With the flapping of its wings, its speed increased instantly.

Soon it was abreast of the glider again.

The sharp beak tinkled against the glider's shell, making Tina break out in a cold sweat.

"No! I can't compete with it in straight-line speed! Who can't speed up in a straight line?"

Thinking of the flying skills she had gradually developed over the past few days, Tina gritted her teeth and started to perform some fancy moves by manipulating the joystick.

Under her control, the glider suddenly plummeted downwards as if it was falling.

This brief sudden change of direction actually succeeded in getting rid of the griffin's harassment.

But before Tina's expression changed, the griffin swooped down and pounced on the glider again.

"I didn't steal your cub! Why are you always chasing after me?"

Seeing that the enemy's agility in the air was far superior to hers, Tina suddenly felt a little at a loss.

Seeing the griffin chasing after her again, Tina hardened her heart, took out her rapid-fire crossbow from her backpack, and opened the protective glass cover.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh”

Three crossbow arrows formed by magic power flew out.

The swooping griffin was not prepared for Tina's attack, and although it dodged in panic, it was still hit on its left wing.

The bright red blood immediately dyed most of its wings red, but the bloody smell aroused the griffin's ferocity, causing it to rush towards the glider.

"Boom!" A knocking sound different from the previous ones was heard, and Tina suddenly felt the speed of her glider gradually decreasing.

"It's broken! It pecked my magic circuit! Ah——! What kind of hatred is this? "

Realizing that her greatest reliance might be about to fail, Tina ignored everything else and quickly picked up the crossbow and attacked the griffin.

“Screech!”

With a sharp cry, the griffin dodged Tina's magic crossbow with a somersault, and then turned around like a snake from under the glider and came to the other side of the glider.

The eagle's claws on the upper body pierced into the outer shell of cloud iron like grabbing tofu. Then, with force from its claws, it actually tore off the cloud iron sheet covering the structural support of the glider.

Looking at the peeling shell, Tina felt something was wrong.

She didn't have time to pack up the other things in the cockpit. She only had time to pick up her backpack before she felt the glider was out of control.

“Squeak~”

The metal support structure was destroyed by the griffin's tearing, and the glider, which was originally made by a low-level machinist, immediately disintegrated.

It broke directly in the middle, and the propellers in the front and on both wings of the glider spun past Tina.

She hurriedly used her hands to confirm whether her head and other parts were still there, and then she saw the propeller embedded in the griffin's shoulder.

The inexplicable change of the situation made her stunned for a moment, and then a feeling of relief quickly spread in her heart.

'You deserve it!'

Glancing triumphantly at the griffin, Tina protected the backpack in her arms and tried to change her definition of "below" with her mind so that she could fly in a safe direction.

The griffin with an injured wing nearby did the same thing. The base of its wing was cut by the propeller, making it almost unable to fly.

Just as the man and the beast were trying, suddenly, an inexplicable force field "supported" them both, slowing down their descent a little.

Tina instinctively stretched out her hands and tried to grab something. She quickly scratched in front of her body with her hands, and she actually managed to stop in mid-air with the help of the invisible force field.

The griffin next to it also imitated Tina and scratched its body frantically, but was also delayed in mid-air by the strange force field.

The man and the beast just stared at each other, but because of the hysteresis of the force field, both sides were now like two mice stuck on a mousetrap, and neither of them could move.

"What are you looking at! Come over here if you have the guts!"

Realizing that both sides were unable to move, Tina somehow mustered up the courage and actually provoked the griffin.

These dangerous monsters, or magical beasts, are all creatures with considerable intelligence, so the griffin naturally understood the provocative meaning in Tina's words.

Its dignity as a griffin prevented it from ignoring this, so it waved its claws and tried to attack Tina.

But the distance between them did not allow it to attack Tina, so the smile on Tina's face became more and more outrageous.

"You can't get through! You can't get through! I'll piss you off to death!"

Like a naughty child, Tina made faces and spoke provocatively.

In the end, the griffin's white-feathered head seemed to be about to explode due to extreme congestion.

The griffin struggled to escape its current predicament, but the harder it struggled, the slower its movements became. By the time it realized something was wrong, only its eyes and mouth could move.

Seeing what happened to the griffin, Tina was shocked and wondered if she had fallen into the scope of some strange ruins.

The plots of some adventure stories that she had read as a child began to flash through Tina's mind one by one. She even put herself in the story, fearing that she would be caught and killed by the guardian of the ruins in the next second.

However, as time passed, no guardian of the ruins came to take their lives, and the strange force field showed no intention of letting them leave.

The man and the beast just leaned against each other like this.

An unknown amount of time had passed before Tina finally couldn't bear the hunger and sleepiness any longer, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

In the dream, the sun appeared again, and Tina suddenly lost her way in the dream.

As Tina's perception of "below" became confused, her body was suddenly pulled by more than a dozen gravity forces.

Suddenly, the invisible force field around her let go of her.

Tina's body rolled twice in the air, and then fell in the direction where the invisible force field extended.

The force field seemed to have disappeared, allowing her to move back and forth in it.

At the same time, on the spacecraft, the radar suddenly detected a heat signal on the left side "falling" towards this side.
